Formel

Monthly CPU = services × cpu × hours × cpu_price. Monthly RAM = services × ram × hours × ram_price. Total = CPU + RAM.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Which hourly rate should I use?

Public cloud sheets list Fargate, GKE Autopilot, ACI or EKS rates in vCPU-hour and GB-hour. Reserved capacity typically runs 40–60% cheaper than on-demand.

Why 730 hours per month?

It is the long-run average of 24 hours × 365.25 days / 12. Most cloud billing uses this figure for month-long SKUs.

Does it include network and storage?

No. Add persistent storage, egress, and managed add-ons (queues, observability) separately.
